I just wanted to see what folks' thoughts were on getting an offical 100 fly split during a 400IM? The 100 fly and free (2 of my focus events) are consecutive events at my next meet, but the 400 IM is a bit later in the day and I'd have some time to rest between events if I were to get a split for the 1st 100 fly. I'd just have to concentrate on not getting DQ's while warming down on the last 300.
Has anyone done this- any thought on the plan? Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the responses. Now I just have to concentrate on keeping the last 300 legal.
Speedo, good luck on your swims!!!
Just one more thought....if the 100 free and fly are your focus events, how much are you really willing to isolate and focus on these two events, at the expense of all other events you might swim? You might want to see if it's worth re-examinating all your events, and doing a 100 free split off of something, swim the 100 fly event instead of trying to do it off the 400IM. The issue I can see with what you have written is that if you are worried about finishing legally, I would think you might end up holding back on the 100 fly leg.
